Monitoring of windows network share

[gofree]

Hi guys , anybody know are is monitoring network share on windows system ? It seems as Zabbix agent is running as local system/admin persmission and Windows mounts the shares within user context Zabbix agent cant see those shares. So basically 'net use' command or 'powershell get-smbmapping' works nicely for the user it doesnt for admin or zabbix agent

Ouput example of net use

Status Local Remote Network
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK Z: \\server\sharedfolder Microsoft Windows Network
OK Y: \\office\documents Microsoft Windows Network
Disconnected X: \\backup\storage Microsoft Windows Network
The command completed successfully.

How are you doing this, a custom user parameter object in the agent configuration? What version of Zabbix?

If you have a user parameter, try: C:\path\to\zabbix_agent2.exe -t YourParameter

What does this output?

When run as userparam there is empty response, because shares under Windows are mounted in user context. Zabbix agent user context ( local with admin rights) doesn't see them. It's one of the things in Windows world.

What's wrong with this? (I don't monitor Windows Servers or Endpoints at all...)

zabbix_agent2 -t vfs.fs.get[\\\\SERVER\\MOUNT]

Pass this to LLD and create prototype items based on the returned JSON object. If you don't get any results, then create an trigger and note it offline. UNC monitoring worked in ZBX 2.X > Monitoring UNC network shares - ZABBIX Forums
